Unifarco accelerates on Esg

Alignment on the environmental, social and governance fronts between the Unifarco group - active in the research, development, production and distribution to pharmacies of cosmetics, nutraceuticals, dermatological products, medical devices, make-up and functional foods - and its partner pharmacies: is the result of a qualitative and quantitative survey addressed to customer pharmacists, with the aim of collecting an external assessment on the perceived commitment of the company to ESG; to deepen the awareness and orientation of pharmacists on sustainability issues; to understand, through their observation, the orientation of end customers on sustainability issues.

The analysis, which actively involved more than 300 pharmacies, shows a very positive perception of Unifarco's commitment to ESG, particularly with regard to training, gender equality, choice of raw materials, supplier management and biodiversity protection.

Among the priorities that emerged, more than 45% of pharmacists indicated three key areas on which they consider the group's commitment to be essential: the reduction of environmental impact, especially with regard to packaging and packaging, efficient waste management and the adoption of sustainable raw materials.

In line with the expectations of pharmacists and end customers, Unifarco confirms its concrete commitment to environmental and social sustainability through a series of measurable and transversal actions in continuous improvement.

In 2024, the company reduced its greenhouse gas emission intensity (scope 1 and 2) by 8.4 per cent compared to 2023, with an overall decrease of 24 per cent compared to 2021.
